Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about different ways foreign intelligence services are finding to recruit local proxies. These methods could be too risky for Western intelligence agencies, but for some state’s services they just make sense.
They also discuss a report into DOGE and how speed was prioritised over robust governance.
